My favorite nursery song is “1, 2, 3, 4, 5, once I caught a fish alive” because it’s the only one I can sing without going horribly off-key. I’m a singer from hell but I have great hearing and suffer whenever anybody sings off-key. The reason why I can sing this particular song is that I saw the score. Maybe I should buy a book of scores for these nursery rhymes and peruse it.

Yes it’s well worth singing but not to be compared to There is an Old Mill by the Stream accompanied by an old tinny piano in a saloon bar towards closing time. Ah now there is a close approach to heaven.
